I hadn't thought of that when I posted yesterday... It got rinsed a few more times, then I ran it through the washing machine in cold water with a color catcher sheet. The sheet came out clean, so I'm hoping it's done bleeding!

Been stitching like mad and am so close, but not done. Since the fastest I can get is 4 days postage, I'm afraid I've missed this years as even if I finish tomorrow night it'll be tuesday before it arrives. Sorry all. Things have just combined to thwart my best laid plans.
On the plus side- we'll definitely have one for next year.

Yes it is my stitching frame it's just a 11x11 Q-snap and a cover made for it so you don't get the oils from your hands on your work! I love it and you can buy them for all sorts of sizes of Q-snaps here:
I also just wanted to add how amazingly awesome q-snaps are! I have a few sizes and only use them now. The only thing I don't like about them is the outside clips are a little roughly cut so I've started sanding the ends down with a nail file so it doesn't snag anything. They also seem to leave white marks on black aida, like a chalk mark from the rough ends. (( (Still don't care, they're amazing)

Yes I switched to q-snaps last year and haven't looked back!
Your square made it Lindsay! The Proffessor Layton looks great! Thank you SO much for the fabric contribution. That is the most anyone has ever donated and I really appreciate it. I will definitely put it to good use!!
Now that I think back, I should have given my husbands address in Canada. Considering I will see him this weekend, I could have just had some shipped there! It would have save those in Canada a little money.

Do you have a PayPal? I'd like to send you some for quilt costs, even if I couldn't get in my square this year.
